| # fx host-tool |
| |
| run a host tool produced by the build |
| |
| ```none |
| usage: fx host-tool [--no-build] TOOLNAME [TOOL_ARGS...] |
| |
| This looks for a tool named TOOLNAME in tool_paths.json and executes it |
| with the provided TOOL_ARGS. |
| --no-build does not attempt to build the tool if it does not exist |
| --check-firewall print a warning if the tool isn't included in firewall |
| rules. This is a no-op outside of macOS. |
| --print print the tool path instead of executing it. TOOL_ARGS |
| is ignored, but check-firewall and build behaves the |
| same. |
| |
| If the tool is not known to the build system, for example if it is not in |
| the GN build graph, a proper message will be printed and the script fails. |
| This script is specially useful for other scripts, via fx-command-run, |
| although it can also be used directly by final users. |
| |
| The tool will be built if host-tool is being run interactively, |
| otherwise an error will be produced if the tool is missing. |
| ``` |
